The Fairy Box

Fairy Box is a wonderfully simple idea. Boxes of toys, books and games to help children cope with hospital treatment. If they’re frightened or sad, or just need cheering up, they choose a toy and it’s theirs to keep. Sometimes a little distraction is all that’s needed to help staff treat children and turn tears into smiles.

We want to make children's experience of hospital as positive as possible.

Being able to visit the Fairy Box for a toy while she was in hospital really helped Mya cope with her treatment. It was a great distraction for her while the nurses worked their magic. Thank you Fairy Box!
